      You can read about new features of OctaneRender™ 4.0 XB4 here:
      viewtopic.php?f=33&t=68283

      The installation consists from two parts:
      1. OctaneRender™ Server
      2. Blender - OctaneRender™ edition.

      After starting OctaneServer it will take some time before the LiveDB tree and LiveDB material previews will be available from Blender - as OctaneServer caches the LiveDB data from remote server right after starting. But only the materials groups tree will be re-cached every time after server start, LiveDB material preview images will be cached only once - so only the very first OctaneServer start will need some more time before LiveDB tree will be available in Blender.
      After the server is run - you can start rendering (or open a rendered view) from inside Blender.

      • Your Hardware specifications (unless they are included in your signature)
      • A clear description of the issue you have found
      • Steps that you took to trigger this bug, so that we can reproduce it (ideally, please also provide screenshots. If possible, files for testing would also be appreciated).
      • Whenever possible, please confirm that this issue is only happening in the plugin, and not also in the Standalone Edition (if the bug occurs in both, it is likely that this issue should be reported in the OctaneRender Standalone section of the Forums).

- Please bear in mind - we are primarily an English-Language Forum. Please do not take offense if we request further clarification due to language differences.
